It was an inspiring sight to see Everest & Matlock in the Lunatic Fringe AO lot in the pre-gloom hours when YHC sleepily rolled in. One lap in and a blur known as Pamela joined the fray with talk of meteor showers and a moth’s mistaken identity. Just as the four extra credit runners hit their stride, an onslaught of heckling was hurled from the gloom. Good morning, TPS.

Shortly thereafter, we knew Lunatic Fringe was happening no matter what so, after a retelling of the F3 mission, we took a short mosey 3/4 of the way around the parking lot. What followed was:

Warm-a-rama:

Monkey Humpers x 10 IC (yep, right outta the gate)

Gorilla Humpers x 10 IC (didn’t even buy the PAX flowers)

Hammy Scoops x 15 IC

Burpees x 5 OYO

String Rippers x 15 IC

Don Quixotes x 15 IC

PAX completed the final 1/4 of the mosey to be reunited with their weights and roll into a Tabata-inspired HIIT #BeatDown known as:

The Thang:

30 seconds of maximum AMRAP effort followed by 15 seconds of rest (felt like 5 seconds). Cycle #1 followed by Cycle #2. Rinse & repeat until PAX completed each cycle 3 times.

Cycle #1 :: The Meta-Conda

1. Kettlebell Swing

2. Blast-off Merkins

3. Kettlebell Squats

4. Shake the Baby (a la Shake Weights)

5. Mtn. Climbers

6. Hollow Body Hold (on your six with arms/legs extended; each 12″ off the ground)

Cycle #2 :: Doomsday

1. Squat Press

2. Release Merkins

3. Side Lunge Press

4. Complex Pull (2 x lawnmowers followed by 1 x curl)

5. Butterfly Sit-up

6. Road To Nowhere (run in place)

Upon completion, YHC saw we had a few extra minutes to kill. After a brief pow-wow with Matlock, it was “decided” that a lap of Fun-hundreds would be… well, fun.
